we are right beside a bathroom building (no showers) and I think it has an outlet or two... but the campsites them selves do not have power...

Here's what I'll be handing out. A trick that looks like a treat!

Mark, I'll have my own inverter that plugs into the ligher socket. I used Kevins (ZGN on RCC)
in the past. Its good to have if you need to charge a phone or run a laptop. I'm
sure others may have them as well. Has USB as well as AC sockets in it.
I tried the bathroom sockets and they work but theres no room to just sit in there
while your charging or using a laptop.

I'm thinking of making my way out to this. Debating who my passenger will be and if the car can make it... It really doesn't like to go slow at the moment, until I get it tuned... We stopping at ABC when we get to Asheville LT1?

Putting the car on jackstands tonight for some fluid changes, brake checks and general going
over.

Washed my tent and aired out my camping gear last week.

Tried not to drink all the beer, so theres some for Sat night.

Who needs a tent Robert? We can sleep out under the stars like the Cowboys used to do.

It's a great way to relax after a few of Tim's brews.

don't think i'll be able to make this meet. i sorta took on a second job, by sorta i mean i only work 1 day every other week, and they want me to go in tomorrow which means i gotta take a day off my regular job which means i can't take saturday off either....and i usually don't get out til 6 pm on saturday, but if i happen to get out early i'll definitely atleast try to show up and put some faces to the names

Got me some RX8 spark plugs and an oil filter. It will be off the stands tonight and packed
ready for Sat morning.

Have a safe trip Mark.

Tray sleeps out under the stars Ray, just need a good sleeping bag. These brews should knock
you out, you won't care/know where your sleeping

It looks like it will be in the low 40s Saturday night and Sunday will be sunny but
around the 60s. All in all, a pretty good temp range for B3R.

Last year was a mild year, we were able to sit out all evening with just coats
on and didn't freeze all night in our tents. Although I do remember remnants of
snow in the shady spots at 5K+ feet along the side of the road.
